Khom is SPECIAL, special host and very special person. Kind, nice and helpful! He arranged almost everything for us, picked us and dropped by train as well. He drove with us for a lunch, translated menu to english, showed some interested places and told a lot of informations about the Thailand and Chumphon. The town is cool, many markets and all kinds of fruits you have to try. The Villa is beyond PERFECT, beautiful houses and awesome jungle nature around. I'm supersure that this is the best place we have seen in Thailand. If I will be back in Chumphon I will for 100% stay with Khom. Btw we spent one day kayaking on the river next to the villa and we loved it so much! * Khom, thank you for everything, it's a pleasure to find a person like you, you are welcome anytime in Prague :) Good luck with Villa, you have build a gold treasure and such a big paradise. :)*With love Aneta&Katka

We arrived late at night so we didn't have the chance to see the beautiful spot. But the welcoming of Taw was great and he helped us find like home for the time we had to stay. He even drove us to the pier to take the boat for Koh tao and wait for us on the way back. A wonderful host !!! If you come around Chumphon do not hesitate to make a ride around, the region is such a beauty...

Agathe February 2014

We were picked up at the late hour of 11.45pm and were brought to the b&b swiftly in a comfortable 4x4. We had egg fried rice and fresh beers waiting! Our room was very comfortable and the three other meals we had (traditional Thai) were exceptional. The b&b rented us a scooter to explore the region, we managed to hire a fishing boat for a private snorkeling tour of the beautiful small islands of the coast of Pak Nam. Capt.Apollo was very responsive and helpful through Airbnb although communication with the family was slightly more difficult, however through (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) translate and sign language we had no problems. Very welcoming and 5* service for a fraction of the price, nice to be outside the population centers in a coconut jungle!! We highly recommend Thai-x ING b&b! ขอขอบคุณ

I am writing this review at Thai X-ing B&B. I have been staying here for over a week and will come back for an overnight stay in about a week after my Ko Phra Thong trip before I leave Thailand. It has been an amazing experience staying here with the Thai X-ing B&B family. Everyone is incredibly kind. Taw, the owner, and his team took me to a beach about half an hour drive from the house on my second day here. Nice and quiet place. They then took me on a private boat trip to Ko Phayam and Ko Sin Hai in the Ranong area the next couple of days. I woke up to amazing sunrise on the boat. We also visited a hot spring and a museum in Ranong. While in Chumphon, the team takes care of me by cooking nice meals, preparing teas and fruit for me as well as doing my laundry. Taw also took me on a bicycle ride near the house one morning. Within a short ride, we were at a quiet beach and a fishing village. I have also been riding the bicycle into town on my own exploring the city. Chumphon is a very laid-back town and people are friendly. I found a couple of cool coffee shops to hang out when I needed a break from my bicycle rides. The massage place across from Thai X-ing Pizza (owned by Taw as well) was good and very reasonably priced. And Taw made amazing vegetarian pizza for me a couple of nights for dinner. What a treat! There is much more I can write about this place and the area. I encourage travelers to explore Chumphon and the nearby area in addition to their trips to Ko Tao and other islands (which is what majority of travelers do when they come to Chumphon for a stopover). Thank you for providing such great experience for me. I look forward to coming back.

This is a very fine and comfy bungalow park with a direct access to the beach. my brother and me arrived here by car late in the evening on our road trip to phuket. Pim was there and gave us a warm welcome and showed us the bungalow which was very clean and comfy. check out was at 12:00 next day and the staff even arranged a late breakfast for us. the beach is very nice, we had a couple of beer sitting on chairs with our feet in the warm water. i definitely recommend this place and would stay here again

DennisSeptember 2016

Great, cheap place to stop for the night on our road trip to Phuket

EdwardNovember 2016

Toxic mold made us very sick. The place was tiny but cute and in a great location right on the beach with a little bar and a fridge stocked with beer so you could sit and look at the waves. There were multiple little wooden bungalows like this so the other ones may be in better condition. Ours had a big leak in the roof and reeked of mold. I noticed this a bit on check in but thought it would go away once we turned the AC on. Also, note that there is only wifi at the bar about 300 yards away, not in the actual bungalow. The moldy smell only got worse and we barely slept, next day I was sick with flu-like symptoms, pain and fever, typical of toxic mold exposure. After a day of sleeping and soup I felt much better so I know the sickness wasn't from a virus or bacterial infection.

We had a wonderful time at Saphli Villa! We spent two nights there. The location is beautiful - right on the beach - and the food is excellent. Pim was a gracious and friendly host - so impressed that she's able to do all that she does! Thanks for having us :)

We felt very welcome at Saphil Cottage. Wonderful Bungalow with A/C. Very well kept grounds. Bungalow very comfortable and built with quality materials. Everything worked well and our hosts did their very best to make us happy and content.

We hired a scooter near the train station, and headed out 15km of chumphon to Saphi. It is situated on the beach north of the city. The grounds are beautifully kept, the rooms are quite new, and very very good. We had a great curry in the town nearby, run by sn englishman and his thai wife. Great food, good company.

The property is near some pristine beaches and a mangrove national park. The location is characterized by its nature, the silence and the absence of tourists. It is the real Thailand here, shaped by the sea, fishing, and coconut-, rubber and palm plantations. Life is original and relaxed, there is neither traffic jam nor hassle. Nevertheless, the infrastructure is excellent (airport, train station, motorway, 5 hospitals, many large and small supermarkets, banks/atm, pharmacies, markets, etc).

The 60 square meter guest apartment is equipped with its own fully tiled bathroom, marble floor tiles, kitchenette, walk-in wardrobe, health friendly air conditioner in the bedroom, 5 ft bed, leather sofa in the living area, tables, chairs and a covered terrace. The kitchenette is equipped with dishes, cutlery, knifes, pan, pot, water cooker, oven and refrigerator/freezer.
Guests have their own wifi access point and the quite reliable fibreglass internet is of course free of charge.
Front and back door entrance as well as the sleeping room can be locked; a small safe is available. Bikes and kayaks can be shared, a motorbike can be rented for a fee.
There are mango, pineapple, papaya, lime, banana trees, and passion fruit plants. 5 persons stay permanently in the main house and a housekeeper takes care during the day.
The whole property has a high western standard, new health friendly air-conditioning, fibreglass internet and is constantly being maintained.
During the day, lots of mobile (motorbike) merchants sell there very good snacks and sweets. Highly recommended and unbeatable low prices
Guests can access the tropical garden, the sea water canal, pavillion and the swimming pool (10m X 5m). Clothes can be washed and ironed by the housekeeper for a small fee.
The hosts can advice on trips, carpool can be arranged to shopping malls. Of course excursions can also be organized. The host family lives on the premises hence interaction should be fun.

Nestled in a residential area in the district of "Pak Nam", the property is located at the rear end of the settlement; a sea water canal forms a natural border. The settlement is about 13 km from the center of Chumphon. The sea is about 2 km with several beaches and a national park within 5 to 10 km is within easy reach. Technically, Pak Nam is an island, as a sea water canal separates us from the mainland - this canal can be crossed by kayak and is actually big fun and adventurous. The best way to drive around the island, about 29 km, is by bike or motorbike. Half of the way is along the sea shore with several nice beaches and the other half is along plantation, hills and jungle.
Those looking for lots of nightlife, international shopping fun and bustle, might want to rethink their holiday plans in Chumphon. Nature-loving locals and foreigners who appreciate the peace and serenity are regular visitors to Chumphon. However, we do have buzzing fresh food markets and the fishery harbour is quite quirky and original; an attraction by itself.
There is a typical Thai rural bus service without fixed stations and departure times towards the city of Chumphon and also to the most famous beach of Pak Nam (name of the district), Hat Sairee; there are motorbike taxis or local taxis (an adventure in itself). We can suggest tours and arrange bookings, motorbikes can be rented from us or you use our bicycles or kayaks.
There a night trains (1st and 2nd class sleeper) to Bangkok and to the South of Thailand and 2 daily flights to Bangkok from Chumphon's airport. There are 3 ferry companies close by (the next one just 2 km away) which have daily service to Koh Tao - the diving island, to Koh Phangan - the full moon party island and Koh Samui, Thailand's 3rd largest island.
The province of Chumphon has over 200 km coastline with plenty of beautiful, often quite deserted beaches. The most famous and absolutely stunning beach, Haad Tung Wua Laen - or Cabana Beach, is just about 25 km away from us. A coastal, quiet road to Cabana Beach, is one of the most beautiful cycle or motorbike tour the province has to offer.
If you need more sleeping space, we can offer another guest room, if vacant, with its own shower/toilet and air-conditioning.

Sweet old wooden thai hut in gorgeous lush jungly fruit garden neighbouring the famous Gong Valley. Perfect for a writer, artist, adventurer! See Gong Coffee in action daily. A quiet, magical place to take a break :)

There is a sweet magic to this place that you feel more and more each day. I live here on and off, especially when I want to be alone and paint or make things. The house is old so don't expect too much. It's rural but only 2km from a huge fresh market which you can cycle to. The land is alongside a creek which runs around the whole property. You can swim. It's deep during rainy season and you can use one of the neighbour's tubes. The hut itself is very simple, just a room (4X4m) with bathroom, and kitchen set-up on the balcony. There is a single mattress, a big shelf for clothes and stuff, a bookshelf. Shower is cold and fresh. Places to hang hammocks. It's especially magical in the evenings. The neighbours have a restaurant on the river which you can visit. It's close but you can't see it from the hut. Fresh organic coffee every day for coffee lovers. Their Thai food is delicious.
House is surrounded by mangosteen trees, longkong trees and all kinds of other fruit trees. It feels a bit like Eden.
There is a gas cooker and some utensils, anything else you need you can find in the market nearby. The restaurant on the river makes delicious Thai food if you're not into cooking.
You will have the hut to yourself for as long as you've booked it. Access to the restaurant and coffee factory and academy. Guests are welcome to learn about how coffee is grown and roasted.
There will probably not be any interaction, as I am living somewhere else if I'm not in the hut, but I will be available online at all times incase guests need some tips on how to handle the jungle. The neighbours are incredible people and will be happy to help out with any questions or to give directions to nearby places. They speak English so that helps.

It's very rural and there are no factories for hundreds of km. The air is the freshest kind. The shower water is soft and sweet. The neighbours are beautiful people. It's so relaxing, possibly the most chilled place I know. One of my favourite places in the world. It's about 7km from the bokkrai waterfall which is very magical, esp. during the week when there are no people there..there is also a cave full of bats nearby which you can walk around, in and even climb to the top of for a spectacular view :)
There are songthaews (open Thai taxi) and minivans that go back and forth between Chumpon and Ranong all day, stopping in Kraburi. I've hitch-hiked a lot between these places and always felt safe. The neighbours have bicycles which you could arrange to rent. In town, there are sidecar motorbike taxis that come past Gong Valley all day. You can also catch a big bus to Phuket or Bangkok or anywhere from Kraburi town. It's Thailand. Easiest place to get around no matter where you are :)
It rains a lot between May and November, but it's not the same every year. I was there recently (Aug) and it was hot and sunny for days. The rain cools things down but if you hate the wetness it might be too much for you.
Also, it's jungle, so if you're not used to being one with nature, it may take time to get used to that.

It was amazing. This cabin is right in the jungle. There's a mosquito-net to protect you, the windows can be closed, and there's a fan to keep you cool. One more nice thing: I bought fresh fruits at the Kraburi market and kept it in the fridge. You can have breakfast, lunch and dinner at the restaurant at the entrance of the little valley wich is very good, and you can see the coffee process from grow to brew, so it's relaxing, adventure and educational.

NathanDecember 2014

We spent about 35 days in Taryns beautiful jungle hut. It was a beautiful experience and am considered so lucky to have been able to connect with the neighbours who are all so kind hearted. The famous Gong, everyone truly does know him, he is a funny character with endless stories to share about his travelling experiences and much, much more. Definitely try his hand roasted coffee! We hitchhiked to the markets weekly and even if we didn't the locals would stop and offer us a lift. The food at the restaurant is well priced and absolutely delicious. Try the soft shell crab :) The river behind the hut is nice to take a dip in when the weather gets too hut. Unfortunately we never got to meet Taryn but she always made sure we were comfortable and quick to answer any questions xx

DarleneDecember 2015

Has an amazing time staying the the hut! Super nice place and everyone there are so friendly! Thanks alot! And Taryn seems great even tho we never met her!

RyanFebruary 2015

I spent a week at Taryn's jungle hut in Kraburi. It was an amazing experience. Taryn's neighbor, Gong's family and his staff, was helpful in making living there very easy. I ate most of my meals and had great coffee at Gong's restaurant. I rode the bike to visit Bokkrai Waterfall which was quiet even on a Saturday. The 7km bicycle journey was great exercise and was a scenic ride. I also rode the bike to town. Kraburi is a quiet town and people are friendly. Thank you for letting me stay in this nice place.

IrisFebruary 2015

Taryn was very helpful and accommodating and her hut is situated along amazing forest next to a ticket that's fun to lounge around in. And there's a waterfall! We had a wonderful time!
